Thiago H. de Paula Figueiredo commented on TAP5-73:
---------------------------------------------------
Tapestry 5.1.0.5 (don't know about previous 5.1.0.x versions) already combines
all the external (not inline) Javascript files when the symbol
SymbolConstants.COMBINE_SCRIPTS is set to true (default value: the same as
SymbolConstants.PRODUCTION_MODE, which has true as default). Therefore, IMHO,
we don't need Javascript bundles nor JAWR, just the minification of Javascript
files.
By the way, after GZipping combined Javascript files, do we still need to
minify them?
I've just opened https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TAP5-741 to provide
packing/minification for CSS files too.
Support for JAWR bundles in @IncludeJavaScript doesn't need any modifications
to Tapestry: just add another binding that provides the correct URL for that
given JAWR bundle.

> Reporter: Howard M. Lewis Ship

> Tapestry should catch downloads of JavaScript libraries, and should "pack"
> the JavaScript ... remove comments and unecessary whitespace. I believe Dojo
> has a library to do this, it may even shorten variable names (!).
> A smart implementation of this would manage to cache the compressed JS, and
> notice when the uncompressed version changed.
